I was about to get the SGS2 LTE and plan to flash it soon after getting it.. however I noticed all roms are currently made for the original 4g model.
I am not an expert but I know what I am doing for the most part (being an HD2 owner for 2 years). there are two issues I see... sorry, in advance, for the lingo i use
1) the LTE has 4 soft buttons in the front (like the infuse).. whereas the original has a hard button in the front. which means "Base rom" would be different, no?
2) I don't this is a big problem but ill ask any ways... All current roms are made for 4G so will that mean that the phone will only work on 4g, assuming the button problem is resolved?
If there is another thread that will answer this please let me know and ill remove this thread. I just could find anything. I clicked search thread, but only threads regarding random discussion about the lte version pop up.
Lol the LTE model hasn't been released yet... Sooooo yeah.

Moving to Q&A
Rogers Samsung Galaxy S 2 lte
The Snapdragon processor will mean a delay on any custom ROM cooking until it is released. I pre ordered but feel confident it will get a lot of the ROM' s and kernels from G S 2 HSPA+ i9000.
What is the device name for the LTE? ~model. Number

This is not root or rom related. Are you using it on at&t?
A search would have led you to the "return to stock" sticky and then we'd have one less of these same threads.

Can you contact the seller?
Return the used device and demand the brand new one.
You spent money for a new product, not a second-handed one, do you?
Worst case, the seller doesn't do the honor, post their Ebay name on so others won't purchase products from them
Suggestion: When posting in an Internet forum, read the sticky posts at the top of the forum first.
The answer to your question is right above in the stickies.
its unlocked and rooted
Galaxy S II unlocked and rooted, but no wifi.!!!!!!!
... Kids these days.
Hi guys,
I just bought the Galaxy SII LTE from Shanghai and i want to change the ROM, which most probably is Chinese, to the English one. I don't like the chinese notifications and programs. I can select one of three languages, English/Chinese/Korea, but still is not enough for me.
Is it possible and if yes how?
Thanks for the help!!!

There are many, many threads, tutorials, and how-to's in the Android Development and Original Android Development section of the SGS2 forum.
First try reading the stickies, first 10 pages then the last 15-20 pages... there are also 100's of youtube tutorials on the subject. There have been blog posts written that you'll find easily by searching on Google.
Here are my not so detailed instructions:
1. DL ROM
2. DL Odin
3. Flash ROM
EDIT: First though, you'll want to find the correct forum. This is the i9100 forum. I think the LTE is NOT the same as the i9100.
EDIT: I was mistaken, it's not T727.

Actually, he got his from Shanghai, so it's probably NOT the SGH-I727. The SGH-I727 is the North American variant of Galaxy SII that is LTE enabled. Likely his is the SHW-M250S or SHW-M250K or SHW-M250L, which is the Asian variant of Galaxy SII that is LTE enabled.
The SHW-M250* models don't have their own forums... there is a thread in this forum for them at the moment.

And it's not.
I think I mis-spoke on the models I mentioned above though; I just looked at the wikipedia page, I guess none of those are LTE enabled.
The other possibilities on what he has are the SHV-E110S, known as the "Galaxy S II LTE", and the SHV-E120L, which known as the "Galaxy S II LTE HD".
OP, you'll need to look for firmwares specific to your device. Be careful.
Hi guys, I think we should have a separate section here so that we could share our experiences with this particular model...I am very sorry if I pissed off any moderators here but since there are no threads regarding this model I felt like I had to do it
I wanna start by telling you that I bought this model for 550$ from Seoul just a week ago and I am very happy. Actually my aim was to get Samsung Galaxy S 3 but I missed it by a week But then saw this phone and said lets give it a try. And guess what , I am more than impressed Anyways after checking couple of forums I saw that official ICS Package was out I upgraded it and then rooted by the help of this forum. Definitely better performance and nice tweaks. But this came with one small issue ; sms problem. when there is an incoming SMS it says "No Caller ID" . Again after little bit googling I found the app called Handcent and it did the trick. Until an international or custom Rom comes out this could be the solution I suppose
One of the biggest differences of the Korean version is you cant go in to the secret menus by typing the secret codes in to the keypad so that caused some trouble while looking for the imei number and trying to change the SMSC ...
Lets share our experiences here so that anyone who has this version can find it here without too much hustle...

This is a bit off topic but..... this link....
http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=3569&c=samsung_shv-e160l_galaxy_note_lte
shows it to be basically a ATT type Note....... so other than country specific software quirks........ it is just a 717 note...... I will leave open for now but I think this will not go far, since there are not a lot of Korean Note user to interact with........... If you could please root your phone and provide a sys-dump and kernel and modem extraction would be very helpful to the community....
Thanks Oka1

I already investigated , the blocks dont seem to be the same , the kernel is not the same either , probably needs to be reoriented or somethign and the usr key layout (obviously) needs to be changed . so with a modified updater script and proper kernel by flashing only system it *should work*
Why is this in the development thread? Rom/Mods/Modems only from what I am aware of.

Why don't you just make a bounty thread? If money is involved maybe it might convince a dev to try cooking up a rom and making a custom kernel. It is always nice to get free development but money can motivate people. Put up some money and I am sure others will too and see if you can't get it done. I have seen lots of other threads on your model and I know everyone with your device wants it badly. Its worth a try anyway.
So if I was to unlock my i717 and took it to Korea it would work with their service providers? :s

hi
hi people, i use this korean model as well.
I am new to android (in fact, started 2 months ago) and not a native english speaker. So, i'm having a lot trouble with some technical words u guys use.
The thing is, i'm thinking of rooting my phone. but there arent much forums and threads on this model. I was wondering if the rooting guides here would work on my phone? and there are so many of em (also for i717...) ...
SOOooo, if possible could you quote the rooting guide (or link to thread) which will definitely work on my phone. i cant afford to make my phone obsolete
Help is much appreciated. Thanks
(btw, i'm from Mongolia. heya, fellow earthlings... haha)
Korean devs are at androidpub and matpclub, but not really serious development is there. Few kernel devs like tegrak and mostly cosmetic/porting from International ROM.
Korean note have 32GB/64GB variety, three diffrent carrier (SKT: HSPA+2100 LTE800/1800, KT: HSPA+2100 LTE1800, LGU: CDMArev.B1800 LTE800), hardware button, DMB, carrier specific addon plugins and frameworks, and pink note
and SHV-E160L for LGU, which is CDMA only(like Verizon). Pretty sure ATT note ROMs are not portable.

Reported for taking the discussion off topic.
Why would you even tell him? Better yet...why care? At least he started one thread for a whole model, to discuss all parts. He could be proliferating. Lets be nice here.
When there was no i717 forum, people discussed it in the Int. forum.
The i717R is discussed here...even though the forum is titled "AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717" as it should be.
Be easy on him. This is good for a chat, and it's about as close to the right place as it gets. He was honest about the fact that he knew there was no other place, and he was nice.
And his specific version has LTE and is powered by a snapdragon. So perhaps this truely is as good as it gets on XDA.

It'd be cool if you could post some pictures and do a hardware impressions review.
Thanks for understanding guys. That is the xda spirit that we seek here is the first quadrant standart benchmark that I had.
It is with the latest ICS and rooted firmware. Cant wait to flash a custom rom to this(if there would ever be one)...

hidden menu !!!
I was searching for an answer for my sms problem and I found out an answer for something else. I was not able to enter any secret codes for the system menus before now it turns out that there is a hidden menu placed by the korean network which you can enter by typing 319 712 358 and then when it asks fr the password you type 0821 and Vala! You have access to the system settings now.
Now here is the question I can not make a video call because my LTE/3G server dns is a korean server address. Does anybody know where I could find the network server dns addresses for the Gsm Networks...
i broke my e160s menu and back button by flashing i717 kernel. i was able to flash cwm and i717 roms but orientation and those buttons are not working. flashing back original kernel and firmware didnt restore those buttons. i could get the phone back working without those buttons. but now i have to use another app to trigger those buttons.

Hi , as far as I know you can unbrick or recover your phone from any kind of situation. They have released the tool to do that. I can not post another forum's link here so just check the chinese version xda which is koxda and use google translate. You can find a lot of info there but it is hard to understand because of the translation. So actually that is the main reason I started this thread...
Im Glad man that youve open this threat for us.
i also use this device. Galaxy note shv-e160..UNRAZ how did you fix your sms problem? need it badly?? please
As I have wrote before in one of my posts in this thread I solved this with the free app called Handcent sms where you could download it from the market I can both send and recieve sms with no problem. But one handicap is I cant use any Turkish characters nor can exceed the 160 characters limit. Then you see the failed sending the message error... I am waiting for the update which would hopefully solve all the miseries One of the guys in this forum installed Honeycomb from the Koxda forum and solved the problem like that but I dont like using old firmware while there is an update
Hello guys,
Sorry if this thread were should be opened in another forum because I'm new here (from your grateful video - I'm noob).
Look, I have Samsung Galaxy SIII I9300, and I have a problem with the Lock.
After that last update that Samsung released to the devices, I've installed it but after that when I tried to lock my device (click on the right side button to lock) after couple of minutes or random time the screen is unlocked by him selves, and locked back after couple of seconds and thats happening a lot of times.
I've tried to turn off all the settings like the movement sensors, voice sensor everything I could think about, even I read that if I pull off my SIM card it may solve my prolem and the problem is with the SIM or something but I tried that and I still had the problem.
Maybe you guys can help me or you know how to fix that or maybe you had this problem in the past?
In Thursday I will give my device to the store I bought the device from.
-----------------------------------
Another question, I've saw many forums abiot the device "Samsung Galaxy S3" but its the same device no? why there is like 5 forums abot this device? with the names: "Verizon, Sprint, T-Mobile, AT&T" and etc ?
What are those devices?
Thanks in advance for any help, please it is very important to me!
Not completely sure about your 1st main question but to answer your second question, the reason why there are other Galaxy S3 forums is because this is the International Galaxy S3 for example UK and europe. Verison and AT&T and Spirit and others are the different versions within America. Each has a different name. For example the International UK version are mainly GT-I9300 where as Spirit is SPH-L710. It makes all the difference when downloading the correct roms. Because if you downloaded a rom made for the SPH-L710 Spirit Galaxy S3 and flashed it to the International GT-I9300 then you could completely brick your device and would have one really expensive door stop or paper weight.
Hope this helped.
